Battery Banks not working

In alpha, my builds relied heavily on solar bank/battery bank setup to power my alternative locations without having to rely on gas refills. Since 1.0 has come out, I have not been able to get battery banks to charge. I have attempted:

  • six solar cells in a solar bank connected to a battery bank with 6 batteries.
  • gas generator connected to a battery bank with 6 batteries.
  • gas generator connected to a battery bank with 18 batteries (6 stacks of 3).
  • fully loaded solar bank connected to a battery bank with 36 batteries (6 stacks of 6).

Has something changed in the setup process that I am no longer understanding? I know there is no longer multiple qualities of batteries, but according to all other literature I can find nothing else has changed. I really hope it is user error and you can point me in the right direction.

Are you using a mod?  I have never seen any ability to stack batteries in a battery bank.  Unless I've missed something, that isn't something you can do in vanilla.  And if it's a mod, it's probably a problem with the mod because batteries charge fine in 1.0 vanilla.  I haven't seen any changes in vanilla related to charging batteries.

I have tried it on two servers, but both are running mods. This is exactly the information I need to get started on a fix. Thank you so much for your reply.

No problem.  It's likely a mod that isn't compatible with 1.0, or 1.1 if you're on EXP.  Hopefully someone there knows which mod affects battery stacking.
